AWESOME loader for BX80 series

[MessickFarmEqu]

It looks like the SSQA and new bucket could be put on the old loader arms. Can you confirm this? Might be a good upgrade without doing a major switch.

I've not seen any confirmation of this, but I suspect so. All the part numbers are different. Cost is around $450 looks much better than the EA one.

Any idea what the new QA will weigh versus the EA 68 lbs?

Kubota is 27lbs according to the pricebook and about 30% cheaper.

Very nice indeed, nicer even if it had a position control 3PH. I can't justify trading one of my BXs in, but if I was buying new, it sure would be worth consideration.

Wow, good to know, and a bit of a surprise, as I expected Kubota to always be heavier. (There front mount forks system sure is heavy.)

But here is another really important question. How far forward do the FEL pins move? The reason I ask is that it can make quite a difference in terms of how much the bucket can lift before versus after the QA is installed.

I'd have to see one on the scales to believe the weight. Is that a shipped price($416.50 is 30% cheaper than the one we offer) a customer would pay at a dealer(plus tax)?

Travis, how far forward does your QA move the FEL pins?

The old pin grabber style BX quick attach(part# BX6315) was 27 pounds.
The new Kubota number for the quick attach is BX2410 and it weighs 92 pounds from looking on the parts side.
The weights in the wholegoods book are obviously not accurate.

The QA adapter pushes the pins 3" further forward.
BUT
Replacing the existing bucket pin on mounts with a quick attach plate saves 2".

The net forward movement is 1".
